See the spec:

    [...] Put another way, an atom:id element pertains to all
    instantiations of a particular Atom entry or feed; revisions
    retain the same content in their atom:id elements. [...]

This clearly implies that a feed is a stream of *instantiations* of an
entry.

Put another way, the map is not the territory, the <entry> is not the
'entry'.
